Design & Fabrication Micro-Studio Specializing in Laser Engraving

Our winter studio sabbatical allows us time to recharge and get inspired for the new year. During this time, we will be travelling, exploring, and indulging in glorious stories. We’ll be back in the studio Monday February 4th. Promise. When we return, it will be to embrace The Owl and The Hourglass as the new name of our business. Donna Diddit for 8 years and will continue to do it but now with a focus toward research, design, and craft.

We’re wrapping up holiday season (see what we word smiths did there?) at the Horseshoe Holiday Market. We’ll be in the building, second floor and to the left in the north hall (but do check out the three other floors and heated tents, all filled with extraordinary finds!). We’ll have word games and all manner of material to satisfy the word nerds, game geeks and bibliophiles in your life.

FREE EVENT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Denver Public Library. I’ll be lending my layman’s eye toward how to approach logo design, presenting the basics of how I rebranded my main design and fabrication company Donna Diddit into The Owl and The Hourglass which is more suitable for art markets and Renaissance Festivals. With a background in scenic design further honed by nearly 14 years with a Fortune 500 company, a logo tells [and sells] the story when we are not present

Learn the basics of Inkscape, a free vector graphics program and create an example logo you can use in print or online.

Roll up your sleeves in this series of hands-on workshops that will help you start building your brand. If you're a small business owner or an aspiring entrepreneur, this is your chance to learn how to create your own logo, start building your website and get started with social media marketing. You can attend any or all of the workshops - no registration needed.
